I still remember the first time I fired up Silent Hill, and this remake brought me back.
It’s unfortunate that a full-scale remake (only if the right people were involved) will likely never happen, because it’s a no-brainer, given the popularity of remakes.
What I like so much about this is that it stays true to the spirit of the original while offering a fresh take that puts the player into Harry’s role. Though, I can’t lie, it makes me want a full-scale remake all the more. Great job!
Thanks Jack! While making this, the biggest thing I had in mind was remaining as accurate as possible. So many "Silent Hill inspired" games around yet NONE of them truly capture the feeling. And that includes Lost in Vivo and Simulacrum. Not to say they aren't great games; they are.
This was practice , as I eventually do want to make a TRUE SH spiritual successor. I aim to surpass the horrors of SH (whether or not I can actually do that is another story, we'll see what happens). But that will take MUCH time, so it shouldn't be expected any time soon at all. I still have a ways to go before I can technologically pull off the nightmares I muster up in my head.
